With the launch of this beautiful and informative new Hawes Association site, it’s now easier than ever to contribute to the association with its goal “to collect and preserve family histories of Hawes people and allied families; to share our knowledge of family histories and to strengthen extended family ties. ” Send your old stories, your new stories, share photos, come to the annual reunion or post on the blog about interesting family history or recent family events.
Speaking of events, the 2015 reunion date will be announced soon. Stay tuned.
So sorry I did not know about this sooner. I am looking into more family history and would like to keep in communications with others. I am hoping to be taking a trip to Hawesville and Tiptonville, preferrable with mom, while she can still travel. I saw how happy it made her when we visited and took videos of the “Woodpecker” house, and I believe she would love to see Hawesville and her birth place in Tiptonville. If anyone would like to contact me, feel free. randy.newkirk@yahoo.com I currently live in King George, Virginia
